My Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This book was ordered for my son. He teaches Theology in another state. The book arrived in no more than 3-4 days. He called me and said the book was in excellent condition.
Excellent book, Reputable Publisher and Authors
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Best, most up to date book on the subject. 2 nihil obstats, 1 imprimatur, 2 Bishop recommendation forewards. Each of the three authors are current professors of Philosophy or Theology. Fr Ronald Lawler is adjunct Professor of Theology at Franciscan University at Stuebenville. William E May is Professor of Moral Theology at the Pope John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family in Washington DC. Another author Joseph Boyle, the third author, is the principal(dean) of St. Michaels College in Toronto where he is also Professor of Philosophy. A good book on Catholic Sexual Ethics from a respected Catholic Publisher : Our Sunday Visitor.
Lucid and well documented
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Dr. May provides a coherent introduction into the ethical issues surrounding sexuality as taught by the Catholic Church - both from the standpoint of Natural Law and John Paul II's personalistic philosophy. Faithful to the teaching of the Magisterium, May critiques revisionist views such as "consequentialism" and "proportionlism" that have curiously only arisen since Pope Paul VI's issuing of Humanae Vitae. May supplements his argument with copius citations of Church documents. Highly recommended for a Cathechist or anyone interested in what the Church truly teaches on sexual issues, May has a knack for relating difficult philosophical issues to the layperson without prior training.
